No other medicine is so reliable as Ay-
er's Cherry Pectoral for coughs, colds and
all arrangements of the respiratory or.
gans tending toward consumption. In all
ordinary cases it is a certain cure, and it
affords sure relief for the asthmatic aud
consumptive, even in advanced stages of
disease. til
If a well be poisoned woe be to those
who drink thereat. 1t is worse to poison
the fountain of life for ones self, and for
posterity. Often by carelessness, or mis-
fortune. or inheritance, this has been
done. Ayers Sarsaparilla frees the
blood, the vital stream, and restores ap-
petite, strength and health. til

The forty per cent privilege .s Was asid
yesterday is direct drive at Wheeling and
also steubonville, both OF which turn out
the finest audiences in any city in the
League-not only in quantity but in quail
ity. This burglarious scheme should be
counteracted in some way, and it ia hoped
that Wheeling and Steubenville may find
knot hole by which they may eacape.
In Difference to tho Goddess city Of Co.
lumbus the Directors also decided to allow
Sunday games. In conversation with
Manager English yesterday he said 10 an

II It had not been for the close decision
on first base, when everybody thought the
man was out, aud another bad break or
third whore the coacher ran out OF biz
box and pushed the runner back, where
II he had run home ho would have been
put out, Wheeling would have blanked
Mansfield. Dushane is a conscientious
umpire, earnest and hard working, but
these little things count. s.5e
The Wheeling club opsued TIP yester.
day's game with two clean hits, but they
failed to score, owing to tho sharp fielding
Of Mansheld. In the second inning, how.
ever, the Gresn Stockings got onto the
ball aud batted 1t all over the field. In
this inning two men were on baaes and
Steel had tbrea strikes, whom he got tho

making q terrific drive to right field for a

Neither side scored until the fourth in
ming, when Bailey brought in run and
scored q home run by duplicating stael's
hit. This ended tbs run getting for
Wheeling, although thoy did some good
batting. This visitors felded magnificent
ly. In the eayerth inning IL looked like
another ecore for Wheeling, bu. Allen in
center caught fly and made double
play by throw to home, which cut off
speidel. Westlake's catch Of a foul fly in
the eighth inning, and double play TO
Wright at first, was loudly applauded.
The visitors scored four runs in the
ninth inning. 1t was one of the 'most
brilliant games OF the season, and was for
blood. Mallory pitched his old time game,
the Mansfelds falling to get hit OF him
until the eighth inning. To-day the San
duskys make their first appearance in this
city. Following is yesterdays score:

CONSOLIDATION SCHEME
VI the Cattle Interests of the Northwest
Gigantic Atlulr. -ij l ,t-.S ~

D.. .la B
ST. LOUIS, May 25.-A local paper gives
an account OF q gigantic scheme to consol-
idate all cattle interests Of the Northwest
and form company which ehatl control
sl5,0OO0OO worth Of cattle and grazing
lands. s.Fss- a y IL - 543
It seemc to have originated with tho
Wyoming Stock Association, OF Cheyenne,
and ia the outgrowth OF the combination
oil the smaller cattlemen into companies,
which haa been going on for several years.
This scheme has been formed for Or
gauizing the largest cattle company ever
known, controlling hundreds Of thousands
Q! cattle, and ranges larger than many
States. The failure OF the Swhn Bros.
brought matters to focus rather unex-
pectedly. The plan is to unite the Wyom-
ing, Colorado, Eastern Utah, Western
Nebraska, Southern Montana and South
ern Dakota ranches into one gigantic COM
pany, each absolutely surrenderlng his
individual herd and ranch, and receiving
propo'tionate amount Of stock in return.
A similar association has been recently
formed in Texas, but one Of lar less extent
and incomplete in its organization. The
danger OF throwing upon tho market q
large amount Of Htock at an unfsvorabla
time will thus be entirely obyiated and
such disasters Gs followed the Indian Ter
.itory GALES rendered impossible. Period.
lea! depreesions, necessiteting weaker
rslchmen 10 sell unmatured stock at
1ninou1 prices, have been disastrous at
times, aud this consolidation will \ In a
great measure, il not entirely, rolieve this.
Fear OF disastrous consequences Of tho
Swan failure compelled the cattle men to
take immediate action, and delegatea were
sent 10 New York, London and Edinburgh
10 impress upon tho capitslists Of these
cities who agree to go into the enterprise
the necessity Of immediate. action, which
they have done with commendable activi.
( ty. The following are connected with the
enterprise: Meesrs. S!urgiP, Lane, Carey,
Davis, Ilihs and CLARK, Of Cheyenne. and
o!richg aud Havemeyor, Of New York
together with number Of Scotch anc
English capitaliste, and some from Boston
and Philadelphia. These gentlemen al
ready control fully half the stock in sWyom
ing and have the support Of nearly all thu
i 1ess Of that Territory. The, cattle will b'
apporiioasd to the ranges, the water, sup
ply fairly divided, aud the productive
sseRion largely increased. n
